HYDERABAD:
The All-India Congress Committee today announced the names of presidents of 17 District Congress Committees.

It also announced the appointment of Chilakaluripet MLA, Marri Rajashekhar, as Guntur DCC president. But, this was later kept in abeyance since Mr. Rajashekhar was elected as an independent.

He will face possible disqualification in case he takes formal membership of the Congress of which he is an associate member now, party sources said.

A press release issued by the Pradesh Returning Officer, G. S. Basavaraj, said the APCC would soon announce the names of office-bearers and executive committee members as authorised by the DCC delegates.
